Now is the time to ask, did the community have adequate tornado shelters, did the elementary schools have adequate protection for the children, how good was their detection and warning system? You get what you pay for, you either pay for the safety precautions or you pay extra for the aftermath.

To ask for help from a non-existing being and to talk about running away as the OP did is going to help. Only fools believe otherwise.

Now is the time to aid the victims and families. Those questions come later.

Some of the posts are surprising since I don't pop in much anymore. As for the shots going back and forth, that used to happen on the 2nd or 3rd page not right from the start.

I pay my taxes so that you and Shogun and I can talk about this in the forum while the federal government is sending out aid and relief efforts.. Are you on your way to aid the families in Moore OK?

I'm a Dem and am pro-FEMA, but love that you are paying your taxes. I subscribe to RT so that you can post here. I grew up in the town where the Bombers were captured so can't be all that bad.

This thread was hijacked instantly. If it was still about the tragedy, it would certainly be wrong to interject politics (as was done.) At this point, it's just another day on the lake - trolling for cold-blooded, slimy bottom feeders. So far, fishings good!

This is the third time Moore has been struck by tornado with the past 15 years. For the "wait and see" crowd, if this isn't the time to ask what went wrong, then when? Should we wait until after the fourth time.

“This is a red state,” said state Rep. Richard Morrissette, D-Oklahoma City, who has introduced several unsuccessful bills in the state Legislature to require so-called “safe rooms,” shelters or anti-tornado construction in homes and trailer parks. “People don’t like anything that is mandated. They don’t like it when the government says they have to do something.”

Well, seeing as there is some probability that this tornado was made stronger due to GW, it should serve as a reminder that we had better start preparing for future events that will be becoming more deadly and more numerous. Floods, drought, hurricanes, fire, snow storms, sea level rise and yes even the strength of tornadoes are getting, and are going to get worse.
